The places to visit were near the bus stops.

Absolutely brilliant ! Would recommend if having a short break in city

This was a great decision as having 3 days in Madrid ,it gave us an overall view of this beautiful city! Gave us ideas of where we would like to return to .Buses were frequent and well organised, helpful staff and useful information. Would thoroughly recommend.

If you only have 1-2 days stay this is the way to get to know Madrid

We found this to be a convenient way to see Madrid during our 2 day stay. Hop on hop off was a great way. The first day we took the Route 1 bus for a complete tour of the city and along the way we jotted down what we wanted to see. Then took it around again and got off and on and we usually only waited at most 15 minutes for the next bus and continued on to the next place to see. The second day we did shopping using the bus again and then time it to that the last run around 845 - 9 PM to see Madrid at night. You pay online for the specific day or days and then you MUST print you ticket on paper and take it with you and present it at any of THEIR stops when you board and then you will get your permanent ticket.
